This has been one of the wettest springs I can remember. The garden looked like a swimming pool last week and it’s still too wet to walk on.

Between the rain and the rabbits, the peas are toast. The rabbits chomped the beans too, but they’re making a nice comeback.

I’ve now added fencing to our impossibly long to-do list.

When you can’t play outside because the ground is so wet it will suck the shoes right off your feet, you have to find other ways to occupy yourself.

Over the years I’ve purchased approximately 7,291 reusable canvas shopping bags and inevitably discover at the check out counter that I’ve either left them a) at home or b) in the trunk of the car. And so began my quest to find a use for all of the plastic grocery bags we’d accumulated.

That’s how I discovered plarn, which led to the inspiration I needed to blow the dust off of my crochet hooks… plarn bags.

To be honest, making the plarn is a repetitive and time consuming PITA (you can find the instructions online), but once you have enough of it made, the bags work up quickly.

And not a single person has guessed that they’re made from recycled plastic. They’re supple, durable, waterproof, eco-friendly and totally kewl.

Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat money.

If we did all the things we were capable of doing,
We would literally astound ourselves. -- Thomas Alva Edison

We are made of all those that have built and broken us.

Marriage is finding that one special person you
can annoy for the rest of your life.

There are two theories to arguing with a woman. Neither works.

Holding on to anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.
